About: I have a background in dogs and horses having had dogs my whole life and horses indoor over half my life. I have worked with special needs dogs as well, providing medications and medical intervention. I also can provide light aid in training, as I have experience in training my personal dog. I try to provide messages and pictures once per day as well! I’m currently receiving my doctorate degree and spending the next 5 months in Pennsylvania finishing school and have a bit more flexibility throughout my weeks. I love animals with my own personal dog Ruby who stays with me as well as horses back in my home state!! I hope to be able to accommodate you and your pet into my schedule to provide the best care. I strive to respect the client’s privacy and space by not disturbing any areas in which the animals do not inhabit. I often spend a bit of time with the animals, primarily outdoors for dogs as to allow them to get more energy and stimulation.
About: I have lived my whole life with dogs! Every variety of bread big and small, from St. Bernard to Chihuahua. I am comfortable with all types of energy levels and needs as I regularly exercise and run myself. So if you need a dog walker to wear your pup out I am here to help! Additionally, I am open to chauffering your pet to appointments as well! Working 6.5 hours a day with a 5 minute commute allows me to devote the majority of my evenings to playing with and training my dog. On the weekends we go on an adventure hiking and swimming. Taking care of myself goes hand in hand with taking care of my dog. Daily long walks, trips to the dog park or creek for swimming, and 1 on 1 playtime. I do training sessions everyday to develop and maintain skills even if only for 5 minutes. I bathe and clip nails personally.
About: I am a young energetic father of 2 dogs myself currently - A male border collie and a male German Shepherd. Both dogs are very friendly. They love other dogs and love to go to the park to play when I go for my walks in the parkway. I am an animal lover and a sucker for puppy eyes. I am available through out the week at any time and have been raising dogs my entire life. I also have experience with technical training of dogs. If you want your dog to be spoiled while you are a way I am the person! Belly rubs, fetch, and walks are built into my daily routine. I currently am a full time student so I have full availability during the summer time and have revile transportation to get to and from locations as needed. I live in a quiet area that is away from busy streets and am able to leash walk your dog around the neighborhood as well as take them to the parkway down the road. I am also able to pet sit at your home if it is easier on your fur baby to avoid any distress and will make sure to follow any scheduled routine for your dog.
“We couldn't be happier with the care our cats received! One of our cats is usually very shy around strangers, but to our surprise, he went straight to Misha without any hesitation; a true testament to her gentle and calming presence. She sent us adorable daily photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our cats were clearly well-loved and looked after. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Lacey is an excellent sitter! You can tell she really loves animals, and makes sure they’re well taken care for and have plenty of play time and affection. One of our girls is extra picky with her food and Lacey was very patient with her. We got plenty of updates and photos, and overall were worry free while away thanks to Lacey! I can’t recommend her enough :)”
About: I’ve been caring for pets as long as I can remember. I’ve lived with large and small dogs, old and young, as well as cats and reptiles. I work from home so I have flexibility and availability throughout most of the day. I can take my job anywhere so I have time to dedicate to your pet! I’ve always showed dedication, care, comfort, and love to any animal I’ve known and met. All animals deserve to be loved and cared for with the same care as any person.
“Cassandra has been absolutely fantastic with my pup, Zeus. She consistently puts great effort into ensuring he is well taken care of, and her dedication truly shows. I couldn't ask for anyone better to watch over him. Knowing that Zeus is in such capable and caring hands gives me great peace of mind.”
About: I Love dogs, since my dog has passed away several years ago I enjoy pet sitting to fill the void. Animals are love. Your animal will be cared for and loved the way you would. We have a fenced in yard which your animal can play in and he will not be ignored or cooped up. We have had many dogs in the past but do not currently have one. Good with large dogs, or all sizes, really, Many people have trusted us with their dogs but now I am trying this service hoping it works well on all ends, it seems like a good idea. Your animal will be in a safe environment and you can get regular updates. Thank you for considering me. I am currently tele commuting working from home. Your dog won't be left alone for hours on end and will not be ignored. Usually home 7 days a week The yard is fenced in, and I have also been using an apple air tag as an extra level of security. Making sure your dog never gets away is the highest priority.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Allentown
I was really nervous to have my 2 cats pet-sat for the first time, but there was no reason to be! Justina was awesome, and my cats loved her, even the fickle Siamese one. 😂 During the 9 days my husband and I were gone, she provided liberal amounts of photos and updates. She also left our house clean and tidy afterwards. We will definitely use her again!
Kendall was fantastic with our dog and took such great care of them. Kendall also went above and beyond by rescuing our cat after he accidentally got shut in a bedroom during the day. We had total peace of mind knowing our pets were in such attentive, caring hands. Highly recommend Kendall!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Allentown stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
